NCT ID NCT02282917
First seen Jan 06, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 13 times
Summary
This early study tested an experimental drug called AR-42 in 7 adults with vestibular schwannoma or meningioma (brain tumors) who were already scheduled for surgery. Participants took the drug for 3 weeks before their tumor was removed, allowing researchers to measure how much drug reached the tumor and whether it affected a key protein (p-AKT). The goal was to gather information, not to treat the disease, so this study was exploratory and has ended.
